ahh that sucks. hope the damage wasn't too bad!

 

sorry about the initial post.. i was a little upset with myself for a while.. but eh.. ive come to realize that its only material posession.. it can be fixed or replaced. Thankfully nothing serious happend. The story is.. I basically backed up into a wall

I had the rear plastic liner off (partially did bsq's rear trunk brace). So when im in reverse and look back.. I can see the white reverse lights blinding me.. hindering my sight.. which is my fault.. i should have put it back on.

here are some large pix of the damage

 

Holy ******** tuesday those are huge pictures. Whew I'll be seeing blue for years.

sorry that happened, damage doesnt look too bad. Good luck

 

Those a giant photos. :D

sorry to hear about your backing

 

lol,

ouch for the car

 

any ideas on what I should expect for repairs?

and is it possible for them to bend that bumper back in? or should i start hunting for a new rear bumper ?

are you cantonese??? hmmm


That sucks!! hope everything works out

 

Sorry to see this happen. Oh well, it happens to the best of us.

California body bodyshop labor costs are more than shops in Texas. The rear cover can be fixed with a polyurethane repair kit & a heat gun, but it needs to be removed, stripped, repaired, primed, then refinished. You maybe looking at $450.00. But this is just an estimate that working with online, so I can't see the full detail (even if your using MASSIVE PHOTOS)

Let me know what you find out.

 

love that color blue

 

Yea, the bumper can be bent back into place. It doesnt look like it needs to be replaced, just painted. Painting should cost you around 100-200 when you find a reputable shop. Good Luck bro.

What happened anyway? Were you stairing at a hot chick that walked by while backing up?

 

hey atleast it wasn't a parked school bus (my cousin)

 

those pictures are big and my resolution is at 1600x1200! at least you didnt rip the whole bumper off or something...

 

no im not cantonese, why do you ask? wah! means cry to me

hm... for 450$ i might as well get a new bumper.. well im planning on getting a few estimates from a few locals..... sorry for the huge pix..

 

If you want to replace the bumper, you maybe looking at $600.00 or more. It can be fixed & with a good shop doing the job, you won't be able to tell the difference.

 

Aww, poor SSBP, makes me sad
